"Failed to clone repository" error on first-time bloom releasing for svn devel repo.

edit

Following bloom's Releasing a Package for the First Time tutorial with my svn upstream repo and git release repo with source version of bloom(to avoid this problem), I get this error:

ros-giantsquid@calamari:~/ROS/hydro_precise/catkinws/src/openrtm_common$ ~/ROS/ros-infrastructure/bloom/scripts/bloom-release --rosdistro hydro --track hydro openrtm_common --edit

Specified repository 'openrtm_common' is not in the release file located at 'https://raw.github.com/ros/rosdistro/master/hydro/release.yaml'
Did you mean one of these: 'pr2_common', 'cob_common', 'clearpath_common'?
Could not determine release repository url for repository 'openrtm_common' of distro 'hydro'
You can continue the release process by manually specifying the location of the RELEASE repository.
To be clear this is the url of the RELEASE repository not the upstream repository.

Repository Name:
  upstream
    Default value, leave this as upstream if you are unsure
  <name>
    Name of the repository (used in the archive name)
  ['upstream']: 
Upstream Repository URI:
  <uri>
    Any valid URI. This variable can be templated, for example an svn url
    can be templated as such: "https://svn.foo.com/foo/tags/foo-:{version}"
    where the :{version} token will be replaced with the version for this release.
  [None]: <a href="https://rtm-ros-robotics.googlecode.com/svn/tags/:%7Bversion%7D">https://rtm-ros-robotics.googlecode.com/svn/tags/:{version}</a>
Upstream VCS Type:
  svn
    Upstream URI is a svn repository
  git
    Upstream URI is a git repository
  hg
    Upstream URI is a hg repository
  tar
    Upstream URI is a tarball
  ['git']: svn
Version:
  :{ask}
    This means that the user will be prompted for the version each release.
    This also means that the upstream devel will be ignored.
  :{auto}
    This means the version will be guessed from the devel branch.
    This means that the devel branch must be set, the devel branch must exist,
    and there must be a valid package.xml in the upstream devel branch ...
